Louisiana Dads on Duty Is Proof Over Policing in Black Communities is Not The Answer

from Coding With Strangers · host Coding With Strangers

Hey Identifier, SHREVEPORT, La. – An effort that started with one father's mission to stem violence at Southwood High School is morphing into a movement that dads plan to replicate on other area campuses and perhaps across America. The resulting "Dads on Duty" message has gone viral on social platforms and national media outlets. “We are coming out of concern, and out of love,” said Southwood High School dad Michael LaFitte. Dads on Duty was formed in response to several fights at Southwood High School in September that ultimately left 23 students incarcerated. "The city was overwhelmed by the number of fights that were taking place at Southwood High School, and these men stepped up to the plate and said this is something that we need to do," Shreveport City Councilwoman Tabitha Taylor said. #Louisiana  #dadsonduty #policing #blackcommunities Leave us a Voice Mail or Support https://anchor.fm/the-identity-booth/message https://anchor.fm/the-identity-booth/support Sub to the channel here https://www.twitch.tv/theidentitybooth Donate https://streamlabs.com/projecteto/tip The Goal: Try to Identify with you as you try to Identify with me.
